-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The real strength of unity
is not through the addition
of individual actions
but through the multiplication
of individual actions.
Let's try to give everyone an opportunity
to bring forth their strengths.
By uniting and chanting together
By uniting and chanting together
we are able to manifest remarkable
power and strength,
more than we can ever imagine!
